"A trailblazer in New Queer Cinema, Gregg Araki burst into an independent scene already known for subversion and carved out a distinct identity as a boundary-pushing, hyper-stylized voice for queer Gen X outcasts. His early films are unflinching glimpses at the realities of ‘90s gay life—angsty and freewheeling, fierce and hilarious, angry and shocking and melancholic, often turning on a dime when the brutal truths of oppression come crashing in.

After The Living End and Totally F***ked Up established Araki’s place in underground queer cinema, he released The Doom Generation as “a heterosexual movie,” cheekily positioning it as an inversion of his previous work. In actuality, The Doom Generation is yet another layer to Araki’s kaleidoscopic Teenage Apocalypse trilogy, a queer awakening narrative punctuated by obliteration. 

As the film’s main trio—Amy Blue (McGowan), Jordan White (Duval), and Xavier Red (Schaech)—embarks on an aimless, violent, gleefully profane road trip across America, the sexual element of their exploits is kept strictly straight. A growing homoeroticism blooms between Jordan and Xavier, but remains subtextual, unconsummated. It is only when that tension is closest to breaking that the movie’s tone flips entirely, as if Araki is suggesting that no such affection can come to pass in a vehemently “heterosexual” space without being ruthlessly stamped out. In its harrowing climax, The Doom Generation proves itself to be as transgressive and rebellious of a statement as anything else Araki made, no less potent as a Trojan horse for righteous fury at the country that failed its queer public. 

Though largely only available censored or in low fidelity since its original theatrical release, this new restoration of Araki’s cult classic fully renews the garish splendor and unflinching extremes at the film’s core, one that has found resonance with generations of queer misfits over the past 30 years."
